All the fighters on tonight’s GBM: ON THE EDGE event made weight at the official pre-fight weigh-ins for Saturday night’s airing live on DAZN at 7pm from Sheffield’s Canon Medical Arena.
Former world title challenger Sean McComb 19-2 (5 KO’s) challenges for the IBF European Super-Lightweight Championship held by Ben Crocker (14-0-1, 2 KO’s) and expects a top 10 ranking with the IBF if victorious, placing himself in the world title conversation once again.
Tysie Gallagher (9-2) places her three titles – British, Commonwealth and European – on the line against the undefeated Ellie Hellewell (7-0,1 KO) in what will be a hard-fought contest.
And hotly-tipped Dutch light-heavyweight prospect Gradus Krau (7-0, 7 KO’s) – a protege of Peter Fury – takes a huge step up as he takes on Scott Forrest (7-1, 4 KO’s), a heavy-hitting powerhouse with many appearances on UK TV screens.
Forrest had been booked for a card in Dubai tomorrow night but negotiated a move to the GBM card when Kraus’ original opponent pulled out on short notice, with Forrest jetting in on Thursday night for what will be a guaranteed fireworks throwdown on Saturday night.
The main card airs live and exclusively from 7pm on DAZN.
